hello
I want to build a six rack system. What material should I use and what is safe for belly heat tape? any comments or advice will be appreciated. Thanks
Robert

I use 3/4" particle board , about $8.00 a 4'x 8' sheet.
for flex-watt heat tape i like the 6watts per foot
from Big Apple about $2.50 per ft.
For a table saw i like just about any belt drive.
Good Luck, racks are the way to go, unless you only have 1 or 2 snakes.

How would you heat something like this?

Heat tape you can get more info about it from the Big Apple or Bean Farm websites

what are the demensions of the rubbermaids in your rack for your large eastern and florida kings?

I don't have the dimensions of my sterilite tubs handy at the momment, but my biggest kings are housed in 106 qt. tubs which is more than enough cubic vol., i use rubber maid water bowls not tubs.
